Quincy Cooperative Community Fund

Quincy Natural Foods

Community owned since 1978

Quincy Natural Foods and Feather River Food Co-ops are located in the rural northern Sierra Mountains of Plumas County. We are two small stores with combined sales of $3.5 M. The stores are 35 miles apart and serve 2 communities with populations of 6,000 and 2,000 respectively. We serve the entire county, with a total population of 20,000.

Over the years, we’ve used this fund to provide start up money to county wide preschool and elementary school garden projects, local community garden projects, and various other food security minded organizations.

Each year we solicit grant applications in the early summer, and award the grant(s) in the late summer at the Quincy Certified Farmers’ Market, which we manage and operate.
